Man magnet

Don’t be surprised when your guy friends start acting strangely this week. They might get tongue-tied in your presence, awkward about saying good night or curiously possessive. You might laugh it off, but they won’t. That’s because last week’s “friend” has somehow turned into this week’s bombshell. You have the Venus/Uranus sextile on March 18 to thank for this remarkable transformation. This is good news if you’ve been secretly crushing on someone because you’ll find that he’s completely simpatico with that idea. However, if you’re happy being friends, then find a way to let the fellows down gently. Tell them you’ve always seen them as brothers rather than paramours. They’ll go for that. Their wives and girlfriends, however, will be a harder sell.

You know that you're infinitely understanding — you were born under the zodiac sign of empathy and compassion — but how do you know that he is? That's the question when Mercury conjoins Neptune on March 22. Whether it's putting on 10 pounds, maxing out another credit card on a shopping spree or quitting your job to write poetry full time, you will want to see how he reacts. If he's encouraging and supportive, then he's a keeper. If he starts scolding you, then this is your cue to walk. Relationships are a two-way street.
